#486 – We Have To Do The Work

Are you training for goals or the Possibilities. It's an interesting distinction, but when you leave it open ended there's less "what do I do next" and more discovery. This is one them from today's cast, the other is, in order to reach the heights we know we can reach, we have to do the work. We talk about the Olympic Swim Trials and how swimmers don't get caught up in gadgets, but focus on how to get better and train for the possibilities. We also talk about how to get faster on the bike and why the best way to get better in this sport is by keeping things simple.  Topics: 41 in 36 Base Nutrition as a hair care product The overload of deceptive information in triathlon How to keep training simple Optimism and Hope Turning inward to be more consistent What if you fail to reach your expectations? What's wrong with trying to feel good every day in training? US Swim Trials It's all about the sweat equity How Spiritual connection lines up with training Distracted lives Doing the work can be boring and monotonous Swimmers and Hyper Focus What it takes for long term consistency Do you want it right now or Right? What if you get behind in training?
